A BRIEF HISTORY OF QUARTZ WATCH MOVEMENTS Owing to a prestigious history and heritage of exquisite craftsmanship, Switzerland sets a tremendous standard for all other watchmakers. During the 16th century, the Swiss watch industry steadily became the home of fine watchmaking and by the end of the 18th century, Geneva was exporting over 60,000 watches per year. One of the innovations of this time was the perpetual watch – the blueprint for today’s self-winding timepiece. However, it was not to be smooth sailing for Switzerland forever. Throughout the 1970s and 80s, Japanese watch company Seiko successfully derailed the industry with what’s commonly referred to as the Quartz Crisis. The Japanese brand’s introduction of the world’s first commercially available quartz-clock wristwatch – the Astron – in 1969 caused incredible upheaval in the traditional watch industry, which was late to adapt to these changes in technology. The Astron showcased that instead of an intricate network of mechanics, a timepiece could be simply powered with a small crystal, battery, and motors. The lure of this new, cutting-edge technology that could more accurately tell the time and was significantly less costly, became irresistible. Watchmakers in the USA and Far East began to thrive at the expense of the traditional brands. It’s estimated that during this period around 900 Swiss watch brands went bankrupt, and two thirds of the workforce lost their jobs. After several decades of industry upheaval, and with watchmakers all over the world taking on the challenge to create the slimmest, most high-quality quartz timepieces, this bleak period in Switzerland’s watchmaking history soon subsided. Quartz technology was embraced by the traditionalists and has since gone on to thrive with advances in innovation, such as solar- and motion-powered watches. For the traditionalists, quartz watches still can’t hold a candle to the masterful engineering of a mechanical movement watch. However, a quartz is well worth the consideration, owing to such precise accuracy alongside considered detail and elegant aesthetics. In fact, the Quartz Crisis is now nothing more than a past chapter in the long and prestigious history of Swiss watchmaking. Its acceptance of quartz as a viable power source has led to the mark of ‘Swiss quartz movement’ being a signifier of excellence in both heritage and craftsmanship. WHAT IS A QUARTZ WATCH MOVEMENT? A quartz watch movement uses a battery as its primary power source. It’s the force behind the dial that drives the hands and powers all complications. The battery sends an electrical current through a small quartz crystal, which electrifies it and creates vibrations. Those vibrations keep the movement oscillating and power the motor that moves the watch hands. Unlike the smooth sweeping motion of a mechanical movement, the second hand of a quartz watch moves in distinct individual ticks. It’s highly likely that a quartz movement is behind the functionality of a standard, everyday timepiece owing to its meticulous reliability. In fact, around 90% of the world’s watches use a battery as their power source. The maintenance is minimal and the price tag is much more cost effective. Couple this with the fact that the timekeeping of a quartz watch is the most accurate available, and it becomes clear why the emergence of quartz caused an upheaval within the world of horology.p
